Do you speak cybersecurity?

If I received a nickel every time we in the business used an abbreviation or a tech-word, I would be a rich man. On top of that we focus on what and how, not so much the why. Today, when we see a lot of our buyers coming from other departments other than IT, it is more important than ever that we can show and explain the actual business value that we offer. If we are lucky, the customer is honest and lets us know that they don’t understand. If we are unclear and the client pretends to understand we are much worse off. That leaves us with a project based on ignorance. Have you ever been there? It is a frustrating scenario with no winners.

The solution

It is time to translate all the amazing things we can do so that everybody understands the positive impact IT in general and cybersecurity in particular can have in our customer’s business. They deserve to know.

This may seem like a simple task, but a big part of our legacy must change before this happens. I can, however, promise you that companies that take this approach are going to find themselves with happier customers, straightforward projects and a bigger revenue.
